Absolutely. Aside from the mind-boggling number of people that are incapable of figuring out that of course the movie is going to have a reason why the monkeys win, rather than have them win "just because", the number that believe the American government would be willing to nuke the monkeys is unbelievable. The odds of nuclear armaments being deployed against a threat like this are ridiculously low. I can barely imagine a situation in which the USA would be willing to deploy nuclear weapons against their own turf, even if all civilians were out of the way.ecoho said:ok i have no doubt that this movie would be fun to watch the only problem i have is if apes took over San Fransisco do you think there would be any hesitation when we bombed the hell out of the city and them with it?
Think of it like this. The USA in Vietnam fought an enemy that they couldn't reasonably engage in any meaningful way on the ground. They were willing to use chemical weaponry against even civilians in the process, but even then they didn't resort to nuclear weapons. Now, the odds of the US government deploying chemical or nuclear weaponry against a target on their own soil are so close to zero as to be nonexistent. That kind of warfare renders areas uninhabitable (or at the very least, inhabitable with a large health risk) for vast periods of time, and even if it would save the lives of American soldiers, the US would prefer to send in ground troops. See, this is why Afghanistan hasn't been nuked yet. Certain weapons just would not be used until, likely, it would be too late to do anything.
